  1. I don't accept that they are the best combo for the franchise. I am not unhappy with them, but I don't know if whether they are the best combo. However, if there is a better combo, they might not be able to get it. If they get fired, they might hire someone that made me unhappy. I am actually pretty convinced that Hinch is a very good manager. I am less sure about Harris, but there are enough things I like about him where I don't want him to be fired.
  2. If you could guarantee a championship, I guess you have to do it, but it would be more fun seeing them win a championship with McGonigle, Clark, etc, than with Suarez.
  3. You can't guarantee championships.
  4. I hope 2025 is not peak peak Tigers, but if they fail this year and then lose Skubal and Mize, there is a very good chance it will take a couple more years to get back to that level.
  5. That is not a controversial opinon at all. I bet that the majority of people here do not want Harris and Hinch to be fired.
  6. Their probability of succeeding is highly correlated with the success of the economy which is not in his favor at the moment. He can lie about stuff he is doing doing internationally. He can lie about immigration. He can lie about lots of stuff and get away with it, but people know full well whether or not they are employed, making enough money and able to afford the necessities.
  7. xwoba kind of does that, but it has Skubal as the #81 pitcher in baseball so I'm not sure it's the best overall measure. mize is #29 and Anderson is #59. I still don't think there is great single stat for measuring overall pitching.
  8. I had the same thought, but if they did get a good glove no hit center fielder, everybody would have complained about the no hit part.
  9. You want production too? Any good CF who can also produce offensively is not going to be blocked. The question is whether there was a good field no hit guy available.
  10. What if you have a rare ingredient which can bake the cake quicker even if it's not perfect. You know that ingredient won't be available in the future, so you have to get it done now.
  11. What if someone is good at baking, but messes up the frosting?
  12. The Tigers did make a trade this year. They acquired Zack Short for cash considerations or a PTBNL. And all you ungrateful bastards did was complain that he wasn't good enough.
  13. 40 million is not a lot for a pitcher of his caliber. The problem is the years. Pitchers always get hurt including Skubal three times already.
  14. Yes, that's what I am thinking for Montero. Unfortunately, they don't really have a true fireman. Do they?
